Trio set for Sri Lanka, Pakistan T20Is

South Australia trio Alex Carey, Adam Zampa and Kane Richardson have been selected in the Gillette Twenty20 International squad to face Sri Lanka and Pakistan starting in Adelaide later this month.

All three West End Redbacks were part of the World Cup squad and will reunite in the green and gold in front of home fans for the first game of the international summer against Sri Lanka at Adelaide Oval on October 27.

Carey will again be joint vice-captain next to Pat Cummins after a breakout World Cup campaign, which included 375 runs at 62.50 and three half-centuries.

Zampa has been a dependable option in Australia's T20 unit and Richardson has recently enjoyed strong Marsh One-Day Cup form for South Australia.

Richardson last took 3/47 in Australia’s World Cup match against Sri Lanka at The Oval and could possibly line up for his first T20I since June 2018.

Steve Smith and David Warner will also make their return to the Twenty20 international fold.

The squad will travel to Adelaide on Thursday, October 24 ahead of the first T20I at the venue starting on Sunday, October 27.

Tickets to the first match of the series at Adelaide Oval are available here.
